What to do if your dog gets skunked?!
I should have seen this coming.....
On the way home from back to school night I saw a very large skunk on my road not too far from my driveway. I smiled and thought,"Oh how cute you are, Pepe la Peu!"
And 2 hours later I let the dog out; big, big, huge, ginormous(yes its a word) mistake!
I called her back in and her mouth was foaming like she had eaten soap and then the smell hit me as she raced through my house, UGH!
I had recently read what to do if your dog gets skunked so I knew not to use tomato juice although many swear by it....
Here is the recipe:
- *1 quart (or liter) of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide, H2O2.Use fresh (unopened) hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).Hydrogen peroxide eventually turns into water (H2O).*1/4 cup (50 ml.) of Baking Soda*1teaspoon (5 ml.) of Liquid Soap*1pair of plastic or latex gloves
I'll let you know if this works in a day or so. So far my house smells worse than the dog!
